Can't Turn Remote Management Off - MR60 Mesh Router

If anyone can help I appreciate it.  I have the latest firmware.  I am just trying to turn off the Remove Management.   When I unselect and then hit Apply it does not save the setting, and turns it...

    Ok, lets try a Factory reset and setup from scratch.

    Wow, thank you so much!!!  I will try and first manually redo the firmware, and then if that doesn't allow me to turn off remote management, do a factory reset, correct?

    Thanks again, sadly manually reinstalling the firmware doesn't fix it ;-(

     

    Next I should try just factory reset?

     

    It's so odd I can deselect the option, but when I go to save, it turns it back on.

      What browser are you using? Try MS Edge or Firefox or Opera.

      Be sure to clear out all browser caches before entering the MRs web page. 

      Definitely try a Factory Reset and setup from scratch. Do not load any saved backups from file.

        Thanks so much I tried a new install of Firefox same issue. I uncheck the box, hit save, it comes back.

         

        At this point, sound like I need to do factory reset?

         

        Do you think it's not possible to turn off Remote Management?

         

        Thanks!
